BOMBER BASEBALL Sectional Champs The Edon Bombers Baseball Team had a complete turn around in 1977 from 1976. The Bombers posted a 9-5 record while winning their Sectional Tournament. The ball club was made up of all underclassmen with only one senior. The team was led in pitching by Junior, Curt Stantz, and Sophomore, Lyle Held, while the leading hitters were Junior, Gary Bowling and Sophomore, Jack Stantz. The most important factor on the ball club was that it was an entire team effort by every individual on the team. Different players on the club came up with the big play or the big hit when it was needed to carry the team to victory. The future looks bright for Edon Baseball with all the returning players for next year and the development of the reserve team that came on strong during the season.
